@BriansWorld6 @AcidQueenOW Apex has a problem because the aim assist value in PC lobbies is too high, and crossplay is allowed in ranked. Overwatch 2 doesn't have crossplay comp lobbies. This thread is purely about aim assist being completely disabled in the casual game modes. Your chart does not apply.

@RokonVR Because people keep playing their games and giving them money. The company is rotten and hasn't done anything to fix it, instead doubling down and attacking their employees attempting to unionize while release sub-par money grabs. But noooo people have to play Overwatch 2 ffs.

@Kesswylie it's very good, not a few "minor updates" which is very annoying, and yeah blizzard kinda sucks but the overwatch team was specifically mentioned as being the team that didn't have all the issues

@garymurphy1919 @TWTHEREDDRAGON actually they underpaid if anything. That "sinking ship" last year was making more money than ever with insanely powerful assets like CoD, Candy Crush, Overwatch, Diablo, Warcraft, Crash, Spyro ect. all bought during in a drop in stock where the biggest drop came from delays

@Kesswylie No, it's just Overwatch 1 with minor updates. The publisher, Blizzard, is a bit more of a problem.

@get_ratio @nalluni @OverwatchEU Quit using a "free game" as an excuse. A lot of us bought Overwatch one for multiple consoles and now we lose out on all that money because they shut that game down. Then they release this crap and I can't login for the first week.

@OverwatchEU How do I appeal a ban. There is nowhere I can find the support ticket this game claims to have and IM PISSED my account shouldn’t be banned because of disconnects and overwatch 1 was more forgiving you suspended my account after one disconnect like Xfinity Wi-Fi isn’t crappy.

@UberDanger I can’t wait for the campaign mode. Shooters against other real people are either super boring or they are fun, but also the most unbalanced bullshit. Overwatch characters are gonna be sick in a good campaign, but the multiplayer is just full of issues.

@Kotaku aaand yet.. people still support the company by buying and playing their games. How many of you knew about the company behavior, yet are still trying to play Overwatch 2? If you are, you are part of the problem.

@ProxyonTwitch I did nothing in particular, it is now working sometimes I just sat there and kept pressing X until it eventually worked I think it’s overwatch servers causing the issue though as I managed to log on last night no problem but before it would take like 10 attempts,

@BlizzardCS In Overwatch 2 there a few challenges that will not progress no matter what. They are "The Best Defense" (Deal/boost 125,000 damage) and "Hold the Line" (Mitigate 40,000 damage). I have been playing tank for about an hour. Is this a known issue or user issue?

@Kesswylie They did? I know people who swapped from OW to OW2 because they literally took the Overwatch servers down to force people to migrate. Don't know about anyone starting it today. It's not on my feed.

@PlayOverwatch fix ur match making. Im TIRED of getting put into matches that are at the end. I loose a game I don’t even get to play.. and how does this effect my win/loss ratio ?! If its a fair loss ill take it but getting put into a game that is over- not cool. #Overwatch #XBX

@timmy77779 @Rami_Al06 @b0gur Hook is meant to punish people out of position, it’s in a pretty good spot rn considering how broken it was at the beginning of overwatch 1, just get an Ana, anti nade him then focus and you’ll pretty much win the fight. Ana is a great counter to hog imo because of that nade
